IQ2200
IQ2200 Family of Network Processors
P E R F O R M A N C E A N D F L E X I B I L I T Y: The IQ2200 Family of Network Processors extends the successful Vitesse IQ2000 network processor family, doubling packet processing performance and improving switch fabric connectivity while maintaining firmware and pinout compatibility for rapid application. The IQ2200 family is designed to deliver flexible, high-performance, deep-packet processing solutions at speeds ranging from DS0 to OC-48. Applications for the IQ2200 family include complex multiprotocol routing, classification, filtering, stateful inspection, encryption, policing/policy enforcement, traffic grooming/ shaping, multicast/stream management, network address translation, and other demanding packet processing operations. Rapid system time-to-market can be dramatically improved when the IQ2200 NPU is coupled with other Vitesse solutions including Physical Layer processing devices, Traffic Managers, and High Speed Switching Fabrics. successfully meeting these challenges through standard products is key to maintaining a competitive edge. The IQ2000 and IQ2200 families enable innovation by providing a high performance, flexible solution that meets todays challenges in networking and communication technology without the time-to-market constraints, fixed-function limitations, and short product life cycles associated with ASIC technology.

WRR A fundamental shift is occurring in the network-hardwaremanufacturing marketplace as demands for very high-speed, service-enabled products eclipse those for more traditional layer 2/3 routing and switching offerings. The combination of hardware acceleration needs, direct support for IP services/features, and demands for longer product life-cycles with reduced time to market, has given birth to the Programmable Network Processor industry. Hardware vendors are in need of an adjunct processing solution that addresses both current and future challenges in network evolution;

IP BASED SERVICE-ENABLED AGGREGATION PLATFORM: The Intelligent Edge of the PDN Transport Core must provide both data aggregation and extensive IP Services. Although these two elements conceptually work closely together, today they are performed in entirely different products (aggregation and service delivery). Link aggregation products take data that is transported over low speed links (or potentially multiple low speed links) and assemble this data into IP Packets. This is a job of varying degrees of difficulty, depending on link type and aggregation methodology employed. Once aggregation has occurred, services are applied on a variety of basis (flows within aggregated channels, microflows within flows, the channel itself, etc.). In this area, services are defined as value-added operations performed on a packet (tagging for MPLS, classification for DiffServ, policy enforcement, and other sophisticated services). This design concept is unique because it provides the basis for collapsing two physically different components (with different architectures, different management facilities, and different provisioning facilities) into a single, highly integrated platform.
